Evaluation of hydro-climatic drivers of contaminant transfer in aquatic food webs in the Husky Lakes Watershed (Inuvialuit Settlement Region, NWT)
Principal Investigator: Gantner, Nikolaus (Klaus)
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2012 2011
Summary: The long term goals of this research are: 1. to identify and quantify the physical, chemical and ecological processes that affect contaminant transfer in Arctic aquatic food webs in response to observed and predicted climate variability & change in the Husky Lakes Watershed (HLW); and 2. to provide people and regulators of Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk with tools to effectively monitor selected highly...

Inuvik Regional Human Contaminants Monitoring Program
Principal Investigator: MacNeil, Chuck
Licensed Year(s): 2000 1999 1998
Summary: The Inuvik Regional Human Contaminants Monitoring Program has finished sampling maternal scalp hair for methyl mercury analysis, and checking maternal and umbilical cord blood for certain organochlorines and metals. The communications phase is now beginning. As of March 2000 participants will have the option to review their medical health records and obtain their personal results. The compiled res...

Assessment of Dietary Benefit: Risk in Inuit Communities
Principal Investigator: Kuhnlein, Harriet V
Licensed Year(s): 1998
Summary: The objectives of this study are therefore: 1) derive quantitative estimates of traditional and market food among Inuit; 2) complete databases of nutrient and contaminant contents of traditional food; define benefits of traditional food in terms of nutritional, socioeconomic and cultural significance; define the levels of exposure to contaminants (heavy metals and organochlorines). In each commun...
